According to CNN News18, Mumbai Police received the threat call from a number traced to Chhattisgarh's Raipur.

"Someone misused my lost number and made this threat call. Mumbai police came today morning and recorded my statement.

If he doesn’t give me 50 lakhs, I will kill him," the report quoted him as saying over the call. Following the incident, a case was registered against an unidentified person at Bandra Police Station in Mumbai for allegedly giving a threat to actor Shah Rukh Khan. Police have registered the case under sections 308(4), 351(3)(4) of BNS.
